| Abstract |
The objective of this investigation was to establish the presence of ground-water contamination at selected industrial waste land-disposal sites. Land disposal facilities studied were lagoons and landfills and combinations of the two. At 43 of 50 sites, migration of one or more hazardous constituents was confirmed. At four other sites, the areal extent of ground water containing hazardous substances was greater than expected, or ground water movement was not in the direction assumed during the field inspection prior to sampling. Contamination by heavy metals and/or organic chemicals was detected at these four sites. At three sites, background data was not available. Contamination with hazardous constituents was found in the monitoring wells sampled at the three sites. (Portions of this document are not fully legible) |
